The old mansion occupied by the Ascension Sect was even more relaxed than Lance imagined; there was no movement at the entrance when the team snuck up.
Perhaps they simply hadn't considered that someone could bypass the ruins, clearing the bay guarded by Deep Divers, and land directly from the cliff.
It seems that the ancestor's control over this land wasn't as strong as he imagined.
"Our first-stage mission is to clear out all creatures inside. I'll repeat once more, clear out all creatures, except for those we discover among ourselves.
Inside, we might encounter some strange situations, but don't be surprised; for those evil cultists, anything can happen.
During combat, try to minimize noise to avoid alerting the enemy prematurely. We'll sneak in discreetly first."
Before stepping into the old mansion, Lance glanced back at them for a final warning.
"Action!"
Lance didn't choose to enter from the main door; he opted to go through a broken side window.
